$A$ hot body,obeying Newton's law of cooling,is cooling down from its peak value $80\,^oC$ to an ambient temperature of $30\,^oC$. It takes $5\,minutes$ to cool down from $80\,^oC$ to $40\,^oC$. How many minutes will it take to cool down from $62\,^oC$ to $32\,^oC$? (Given $\ln 2 = 0.693, \ln 5 = 1.609$)

  • A
    $3.75$
  • B
    $8.6$
  • C
    $9.6$
  • D
    $6.5$
